Are you ready for the summer? This is the high time of the
year for lake folks and our friends who come to enjoy the lake
and all it has to offer!
In this issue, we look at some simpler ways to enjoy the
lake, bring you the story of a young lady’s hard-won victory
over Lyme disease, and continue the real untold story of
survival in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.
Thanks to all of our readers who contributed photos,
suggestions, and articles, and keep those letters and e-mails
coming! Let’s take on the summer!
